RAM Advanse– RAM Advanse is a general purpose 2D/3D Finite Element Analysis Software and can be used to design anything from a quick 2D frame to a full 3D model. The program includes design of wood, steel, cold-formed steel and concrete. RAM Advanse is a high-quality productivity tool that is priced for every budget. RAM Advanse is similar to other general frame programs currently available, only it’s much easier to use and takes you further than any other program with its advanced design features. Plus, with our “Get a response when you need it” Technical Support and Training team, we keep you on schedule and on track by quickly responding to your questions and providing assistance along the way. In addition, RAM Advanse links with RAM Connection for design of shear and moment connections for steel wide-flange or hollow sections. | |

The industry’s most productive tool specifically tailored
for building designers. The RAM Structural System includes
RAM Steel, RAM
Concrete, RAM
Frame, and RAM
Foundation. This fully integrated suite of building design,
analysis and drafting software increases your productivity from conceptual
design through construction. It produces complete sets of CAD drawings for
frame elevations, beam and column schedules, floor framing and foundation
plans.
All modules of the RAM Structural System work off of one common database, from which analysis, design and drafting is performed. Modules are available for both steel and concrete design for a variety of design codes. Any changes automatically make their way throughout the system to help you produce new designs and drawings quickly. RAM Structural System also links with RAM Connection for design of shear and moment connections for steel wide-flange or hollow sections. |

RAM Concept – RAM Concept is the most sophisticated and easy-to-use software available for reinforced or post-tensioned concrete slab and mat design. With RAM Concept, engineers can design an entire elevated slab or mat foundation, no matter how complicated, in just a few hours. RAM Concept easily accounts for steps, openings, complicated loadings and other irregularities. Developed for reinforced or post-tensioned structures, RAM Concept will save you precious time and money in the design of concrete structures. In addition, RAM Concept’s FEA based analysis provides major advantages over conventional strip methods, allowing you to handle complex floor design more accurately and with more confidence in the results. RAM Concept is being completely integrated into the RAM Structural System to provide you with the gravity and lateral design of concrete buildings. |
